Biography
Scottish funnyman and radio host who turned to stand-up after finding a career in accountancy a bit boring (and who can blame him?). One of his early breaks was doing the studio warm-up for Have I Got News for You and he's hosted the weekday mid-morning show on BBC Radio Scotland since 1997.
